portions. it's not just sean hannity it's the congressional budget office. it's going to drive up healthcare costs by trillions. it's going to lead millions out of the system. it's going to force millions into the government system. i think we have every reason to believe it results in rationira, it results in government making decisions as they try to save money including probably impacting the elderly the most. is there any aspect of mayannal sis that's wrong or am i pretty much on target? >> i think you are on target, two, one of the seminal moments occurred a couple weeks ago and last week when the congressional budget office, which by the way is selected the head of by the democrats came out with a devastating assessment of the effects of the healthcare plan that was with the senate. as you know it did not save money, it increased healthcare costs by over 200 and some billion dollars a year t. did not provide universal coverage. it was a devastating blow to what the president and democrats were trying to how moist off on american people. it was not reform and all it was going

hall event claiming to be a doctor. sean: and tonight in "hannity's america," she's not a doctor. now at the cell phone town hall hosted by congresswoman sheila jackson lee, a woman who claimed to be a doctor stood up in praise of health care reform. >> i know i'm a general practitioner. >> she is a primary care physician. i love her. [applause] >> how long have you been practicing? >> four years. sean: don't be fooled. that woman is no doctor. the blog corresponded with her and she admits she lied at the event and she tried to explain herself. the blog revealed that the woman was a delegate for obama in 2008. politico.com looked at all of his speeches delivered by the president since he took office and counted the number of times he has used certain words. he has said health more than the words, iraq, iran, afghanistan and terrorism combined. here are the specifics. out of over 670,000 words reviewed, president obama has said america 3,000 time, change, 700 times and afghanistan and iraq were uttered less than 400 times. i guess protecting the homeland is a part-time job. >> now it's

tactic. they have attacked fox, rush limbaugh, sean hannity, health care industry, banks, big business. they always need someone to hate. >> campaign politics is about division in my view, having covered a lot of campaigns, but who do you make your enemies? in the end you need insurance companies. no one says this, his plan, insurance companies won't turn a profit. that's going to happen. sean: even the c.b.o. says, tens of millions of people are going to be forced into that public option, if you believe the heritage foundation. they are predicting 88 million people will be forced out. >> look, the administration has to answer these questions. we can't just go blindly into accepting health care program that hasn't had any -- i mean, look, we haven't divided the health care program up enough to understand what the future is going to bring about and i think the american people right now are frustrated. you know, i can't take the two sides of this, but what i can tell you, i'm getting emails every day from the american people and they feel they aren't being listened to. sean: it's one thi

, sean hannity, they will attack fox news. now they are directly attacking the american people. strategically, it does not seem wise to me. what do you think the fallout will be? >> i think there will be a huge backlash because they misunderstand the roots of this movement. it is not something directed from the top down. the republicans can only wish that they could've been so competent to have seen this coming. nobody saw it coming except the people on the ground, people on the internet. fox news was treating the tea party movement with respect while others were denigrating these people -- i have been to many of the tea parties. many of them are independent. many of them are disgusted with republicans and democrats. they want what obama promised but failed to deliver, transparency, at the, fiscal responsibility, and personal responsibility. if robert gibbs and rahm emanuel and the chicago machine think it will do them well in 2010 to keep smearing these people, go ahead. sean: strategically, tactically, it seems almost idiotic to attack the american people. you look at these v

they invite me. you have got juan williams on fox news. sean hannity. sean hannity started right here in atlanta. i was on his show. i have been on all of their shows. sean: he is invited back all of the time. that is one congressman who did not go into hiding because he was afraid of facing his constituents. >> to goรง out and "g grass-roos citizens, stay at home moms, senior citizens, who are concerned about $500 and unspecified medicare cuts and losing their health insurance, and they were called un-american and evil -- to go and take concerned citizens. they have paid the ultimate price and board the ultimate freedom that we can speak of freely. -- borne the ultimate freedom that we can speak freely. >> i gives got credit for saying something nice to you, i would not go back to your democratic caucus if i were you -- i give scott credit. you used to do it, and you know it as well as i.d. -- -- as well as i do. sean: do you think that she is a monster? >> she is a very nice lady. -- a mobster. once in awhile, you are a nice guy. the point is that these guys a walked around the mee

. i don't want to talk about russia and sean hannity and genie. we were going to ruin the republican party. when we consider this i don't want to see black underclass i don't think that is representative of all. if we look at the nomination will -- never discussed. >> host: thank you for the call. >> guest: what caught my ear from the call is the notion that certain things people don't need to hear. some people don't need to hear and i think he's talking about problems inside the black community especially as it would give ammunition to the people he describes as far right-wing whether it is rush limbaugh, sean hannity and the like and people he apparently feels have antipathy toward the black community and don't have a sincere passion to try to help uplift and so he says we don't need to have those people to give them ammunition. bill cosby said it's not a matter of earing dirty laundry. it isn't as if there are people who don't know about the problems, about the high dropout rate and don't know about the achievement gap between black and white children, who don't know about feet hi

for just $99. sean: tonight in "hannity's america" the train wreck that is the cash for clunkers program continues. the program may have triggered an uptick in auto sales but also has taken its toll on many car dealer's budgets. according to "the milwaukee journal sentinel," some dealers have dished out millions in rebates and have yet to be paid back by the government. one dealer in wisconsin said, quote, they roled out the program and told us we'd get paid in 10 days. it's been three weeks. i guess this is the kind of efficiency we can expect if the government takes over the u.s. health care system. and tonight's "waste 101 update" comes to you courtesy of the economic stimulus. it's been six months since congress passed the billion dollar pork bill and the verdict is in. the public thinks it has been a colossal failure, according to the latest gallup poll. asked where the stimulus made the economy better, had no effect or made it worse, 57% think the stimulus has either had no affect or in fact made it worse. the government has no confidence they're spending their money efficiently. a

animus against the man. sean hannity is a republican. it is obvious that he does not like president obama. and thinks his policies are bad. but, in totality, with shepard smith coming at 7:00. with bret baire coming at 6:00, you have a presentation that's not overtly hostile to president obama. what we -- what the contention is is that we glorify the protesters. but that's bull. we just don't demean them like all the other networks do. so i'm trying to get in my mind why the obama people don't see this as a negative toward them. a fight with fox hurts them. helps our ratings, hurts their ratings. but they continue, i think, to make an issue of it. >> well, i mean, the one time during the presidency was the one interview did with john harwood. now, i know other cable networks when they hear the president say cable chatter think the president is talking about them. many think the president is talking about us. during one of his recent town meetings, he said, you know, if you go across cable and you stop your remote at a certain channel you know you hear critical things. bill: of course that

be annoyed at sean hannity, he is a republican. he doesn't like him. i would be annoyed. so what? you know, he is a republican. that's what republicans do. sean describes himself as a reagan republican. ok? a reagan republican is not going to like a liberal democrat. ever. go, juan. >> i think you are exactly right. he is not -- glenn beck is not going to like barack obama. so be it. but you have got to get in the arena and fight. if you think back, remember when you had president bush and dick cheney on the stand and they were pointing at a "new york times" reporter and calling him a jerk. ok. but it's not like the "new york times" stopped covering the bush administration. what's happening here, bill, is you have people inside the white house who say, wait a second. if we put barack obama on bill o'reilly's show, all that chorus over at msnbc is going to go ba than -- bananas. >> bill: so what, juan. nobody is watching them over there. they have no audience. nobody. what you just said, that's like saying the toledo mud hens are going to be mad. ok? it doesn't matter. >> it doesn't make se

you were sean hannity because you can get your knee replaced. conservatives can pick out a little things here and there that you want to shoot out, 70% -- >> it is all elderly. can you not see who is upset about this? they fear that they will be out. sean: if you take out illegal immigrants. you take out the illegal immigrant equation, you take out young people that choose not to buy insurance because they want to go out and party. >> then it is 47 million people. sean: >> it is about 15 million people. 84% of the people have health care. why would you try to change something that has such a success rate? >> if they lose their job they will lose their coverage and will not be able to get it. if they have a pre-existing condition and will not be covered. if they get sick, they will not be able to get health care. >> why are they out at these town hall meetings being angry like you have never seen? these are not interest groups, this is a middle-class america. >> i and stand that. they are angry because you are talking about things that don't have to do with health care reform. prot

. sean: you had a good time. let me tell you, you have to go to the concert. and you will see sean hannity, not only does he get up on stage and talked, he dances, he sings. a great time. the crowds went wild. sean: it was a great concert for a great

. get some younger people in there who have the enthusiasm. sean: hannity.com tomorrow, he run for congress?" if i can get it up to 90%, will you run? i work with espn. you are trying to get me fired. sean: we would both go down. >> i want to tell you. just believe in holding people and when you say are going to do something, go do it. this is not about politics. this is about our future. it is about doing the right thing. everything has to be based on trust, and people do not trust the government. the reason nobody believes it is because they have lost trust in the government. if you're going to do something, do it to the best of your ability. i do not mind paying taxes, but, gosh darn it, do not lose it, topended portly, ascended in prison. >> this is the type of politician that we need. and politicians who cares. the coach would not be running because he needs the position, he wants the famous. d be running because of conscience. i would run for office at some point in my life. yes, i would. >> that would be interesting. fascinating. i can imagine your opponents. รงyou know

the republicans have all these talking points that have been delivered through glenn beck, bill o'reilly and sean hannity that are not true. >> reporter: so democrats are now trying to play defense, sending out these health care fact check cards to supporters with their own talking points. ben tracy, cbs news, los angeles. >> couric: a key player on the republican side of the battle over health care reform got an earful from his constituents today at four town meetings in the heartland. here's cynthia bowers. >> reporter: the man many say is the most important member of the senate when it comes to health care reform, iowa's chuck grassley, took his turn on the town hall circuit today. >> we're here with such a large crowd because people fear for america. ( applause ) >> reporter: he was facing standing-room-only crowd at every stop. >> we don't really know what's happening. >> reporter: as the ranking republican on the senate's finance committee, grassley is trying to cut through the noise and come up with a bipartisan health care bill that's acceptable to everyone. >> you know, i have been criti

hannity, rush limbaugh. they laugh at me. everybody thinks these rush limbaugh and sean hannity and all these radio talk people have all of this power. they are nothing but a joke. this new guy, what is his name, i can't remember his name on fox news. he comes on at 5:00. he is a madman. guest: we don't have the power to control how many people turn out or how they behave there. all we really do is facilitate their participation by letting people know when the town halls are and giving tell information about the subjects. the passes are so tydeep we can send out an e-mail that says calm down. there are a lot of americans who, i think, agree with the idea that henry david thoreau sadist oi sa said disobedience is true liberty and they realize they have to raise their voices and it is too bad that it gets to that but it shows the frustration people have. they go to the town hall and hear the spin. i think the senator specter town hall was a gooding of what was getting to people. he would say we need to consider these things quickly and pass them fast. people don't want that. host: more p

mouth, constipation sean: and tonight on "hannity's america" during the campaign season much was made of the suspicious donations made to the obama campaign. political.com -- politico.com reports the remaining stafferens -- staffers have taken it upon themselves to reimburse the fraudulent donors. they have issued $27,000 in refunds to lobbyists. at least 40 refunds to foreign donors and one big refund to musician and convicted murderer phil spector who maxed out his contributions to mr. obama. but the "new york post" and the national review -- and the nationalreview.com reported on the following obama donors who were allowed to contribute to the campaign through the purposefully lax online contribution system. they include john gault, of anrand, in gulf, colorado. remember that? a bad donation, made his contribution with a bad card, and donations made under various fake names and finally adolf hitler in berlin, germany, donated under this name and address to demonstrate the absurdity of obama's online donation system. so i wonder how the president plans to reimburse them or maybe he'

their eyes a little bit and take second look that maybe guys like sean hannity might have been right all along? >> i want to give you what you're leading me toward. but i actually think that it makes people doubt his judgment in times of pressure. remember, this was spoken during a press conference. so there was no briefing there. and he spoke, totally off the cuff. the final question. it says to people that just maybe he's a little tired. he's making some mistakes. and if i have some doubt about him in this performance, can i really trust what he's saying in other things? sean, it doesn't make people angry at him. but it does make them doubt that things that he says after that. sean: maybe that's what -- in other words, i think that he used terms during the campaign. he would read his teleprompter. it was very well scripted. he gave a great speech. and then there were guys like me saying you know what? i think he's far more radical than he lets on. are those doubts creeping in now? maybe that's a better way to ask it. >> it's more, is he up to the job in the way that we have to trust hi

's pews and considered him a mentor and the only exception was sean hannity who had him on to talk about the black value system that basically says that the way any blacks who achieve economic success are being bought off by the capitalist system and are to be shunned. but in my stories, i reported for the first time on reverend white's sermons, saying that the government created aids to kill off blacks, that israel is a racist country, that the government created killers to kill off minorities throughout the world, et cetera, et cetera. and also that the same reverend white gave awards to farrah kahn for lifetime achievement. who picked up those stories? nobody. nobody touched it. i mentioned the stories to a cnn rerter at a party and she had not seen the stories and she said that's amazing. of course, i could never run a story like that. i would be accused of being bias against barack obama by my network. finally, after sending the stories to friends i know in mainstream media, tv networks and newspapers, after about two months, i did a "wall street journal" op ed quoting the sermons a

. greta: sean hannity wanted to know what this anniversary was, and i would not tell him. let's grade the six months. let's start the first 1:00 p.m., we are looking at different criteria. the first one is on employment. 14.8% in february, 16.3% in july. that is usually a lagging indicator -- the first one is unemployment. >> this is probably the worst one, because, after all, the stimulus was to create jobs. i brought my chalkboard, because, after all, i m&a staff professor, but i would have to give them -- i am a tough professor, but i would have to give them an f. we have actually lost jobs, so on that criteria, they did not perform. greta: all right, another indicator to look at would be foreclosure notices. in february, there were over 290,000. in july, it was 360,000 plus. >> i think the housing market has improved a tad little bit, so i am2going to giveรง them a . i do not know if we can introduce this to the stimulus plan, -- if we can attribute this to the stimulus plan, but sales were up. greta: so you are thinking that is a positive, new home sales. all right, budget defic

% believe this, because every night sean hannity or others have been pushing this message, that in the language there is this potential. and when you say that, you're raising suspicions on the part of the public. >> is it that, or that more conservatives watch fox news and more conservatives are negative towards this plan or don't have any confidence in obama or in the mainstream media? >> a lot of political sciences indicated, especially over the past generation, there's been a tendency for people first to decide what they believe and then to decide what they want to watch. whereas, back in the 1970s, the best predictor about what you thought about the economy was how you were personally doing by the late 1990s, the best predictor about what you thought of the economy, whether you supported the party in power or not. the thing so wacky about this debate, is that it is already true that everybody or virtually everybody over 65 is enrolled in a public plan. the government could kill them all now if it wanted to. they have, theoretically, so what is going on different? that

delivered through glenn beck, bill o'reilly, and sean hannity. bill: totally absurd. i have never received a republican talking point in my life. cbs should be ashamed to use a dishonest sound bite like that. the battle lines have been drawn as the nation is deeply involved in the most intense political debate in years. president obama has the power of his office and most of the peed i can't squarely behind him. the folks have, the folks, we will see who prevails. that's the memo. now for the top story tonight. the latest poll numbers. according to a just released opinion dynamics poll 49% of americans now oppose obama care. just 34% favor it. and when asked if they are satisfied with the way things are going in america. 61% of americans say they are not satisfied just 3% say they are. and in a rasmussen poll, the president's job approval rating. joining us from los angeles doctor who treeches at occidental university and scott rasmussen. it's a pretty stunning last four weeks. you can put it in perspective for us? >> the president's numbers have been slipping steadily. he was at 53%, the

, the republican party today is very, very defensive. their major spokespeople are people like dick cheney or sean hannity, rush limbaugh. they don't have the stature they once had. they don't stant stand with anything. they haven't come out with their health care plan. sarah palin is looking to be the republican candidate for president next time around. for many republicans that's a nightmare because she is a loose cannon. so they have a republican party that really is looking for issues, looking for ways of reasserting themselves. a defeat on health care would be a great way of giving the obama administration a black eye. they are not going to be able to do that. again, 51 votes is all the democrats need to get health care or a significant part of health care through the senate this fall. >> secretary rice, i want to bring in jon hillsenrath, my co-host. i don't know if i should call you professor or secretary or professor secretary rice. >> your highness will be fine. >> the job market, isn't this a political impediment for president obama right now? it seems to me he's going to have a challeng

, best oopsies. best tv oopsy, sean hannity of fox and stuart varney of the fox we're not doing any business channel, hannity said two bits of news came out. max baucus said social security could face default within two years. varney promptly agreed. spencer baucus said it. spencer bachus, not democratic senator max baucus of montana. oh, and congressman bachus later admitted he made a mistake and meant to say deficit. social security could face a deficit within two years. first chance at default would be 2037 so fox got the name wrong and branch of government wrong and political party wrong and the quote and fact wrong. there's been no correction. >>> dateline washington, number two best ex-politician oopsie. tom delay now affiliated with "dancing with the stars" on with chris, never mind for a moment he turned into one of those invasion of the body snatchers, conspiracy theory birther things listen for the blooper. >> will you do me a favor. ask the president to show me his gift certificate? i mean his girth certificate? his birth certificate. >> that's how obama can reform health

crowley may very well resign, and frankly join sean hannity and sarah palin on the lecter circuit making speeches and making millions of dollars. professor gates probably as a result of this will never be racially profiled again in his life whereas i can walk out of the studio and it might happen. that's why it's so unrealistic anymore what the experience is that they're having. alex, when is the last time you know of any african-american or white american who was originally the suspect in a potential burglary or break-in, and then ultimately winds up celebrating the event at a beer festival at the white house, with the president and the vice president of the united states, in good company with the arresting officer? that doesn't happen. >> it doesn't happen. >> and it takes us off of the issue. >> the thing is, there is a unique situation, because the president did insert himself. it's all unique because the president of the united states is black. i mean this whole teachable moment concept, do you think the whole country is looking at this situation a bit differently because the presid

that gets in prime-time you have's to have very strong opinions. sean hannity, glenn beck, bill read the but even among those three there are very diverse opinions on basic policy matters and on how hard orow soft to trt barack obama and then of course there is a news side which i think is unfailingly fair and baland so again to level an a hominem attack to fox to discredit a foreigner page book is ridiculs. >> host: our guest is michelle malkin. eric is joining us from lake park, iowa inpendent line. >> caller: why i wanted to know if this book, what is your answer to all of these questions you have? what is the answer to-mike leavitt book alpa don't have a idea? >> guest: well, i think that sunlight is the best disinfectant and i think that this closure will help breed disclosure and i also think there is simply that knowledge is power. and i think that the american people have not been fully informed about just how much n elusion pope and change the era of hope and change has been so i think the book part of the solution. >> host: another quote fro the book, this with regard to s

to identify the people with the legislation. >> savannah, we saw rush limbaugh, among others, sean hannity as well, begin in fact to criticize the notion that some democrats would call on other democrats to support ted kennedy's legacy and pass health care reform. do you expect that call will be made more formally for democrats and even some republicans? if so, do you think it will be effective? do you think he will have a gipper like opportunity? i have to ask you to hang on one moment. mark sanford is speaking, lieutenant governor has formally called on him to resign. sanford rejected that yesterday but we're going to hear what he has to say right now. >> i wanted to very briefly offer a couple of comments in light of a letter that we sent, our office sent back to david thomas yesterday. it really fits in this larger category of the response i gave yesterday to andrew bowers letter to my office in which in that letter i basically said two things. i said, one, let's not make decisions based on hyperbole, media accounts. let's make decisions on facts. two, when one looks at facts we have a

so we are rocking out in the studio. you also are going to cool concerts with sean hannity. what's this all about? >> alysin, where the last of it coming up tonight in atlanta. this is a great series also prolonged. entire month of august devoted to raising funds for freedom alliance and supporting the cause and giving scholarships to youngsters who lost a parent serving in the line of duty in the armed forces of the united states. we've been all across america are within a great win last night in cincinnati. we're about to go to the last one in atlanta. it has been a great uniform arrogance. every one a sell out and what a wonderful experience to celebrate america. >> alysin: what a wonderful cause. we see hannity and there. >> dave: imagine colonel north singing achy-breaky heart. just imagine that. >> clayton: with sunglasses on. they so much kernel. >> i bless you guys. sue and remember everybody tune into war stories investigates: drugs, money and narco terror. it's hosted by colonel oliver north and it will be at 3:00 pm and 9:00 pm here on fox news channel. >> clayton: com

very, very, very widely passed around among conservatives. yesterday i was listening to sean hannity. he was having her on as his guest to talk about how in the health-care bill she was on as the bipartisan witness for the bill. that is why you have some misinformation being posted around, and i forgot where i read this, but some of your viewers will remember one example of that misinformation is that in the town halls you keep hearing people listening to talk radio, talking about section 29. it turns out there is no section 29 of the bill. they also start -- there is a little game of telephone going on. host: mike allen, his piece this morning in thepolitico.com. we want to hear from you, as mike allen indicated in "usa today" reporting, the focus of the latest airwave campaign in 21 states on health care. we begin with alberta, on the democrats' line. good morning, welcome to "washington journal." caller: good morning. host: please go ahead. caller: my concern is that there are many doctors out there who know the scam, know how to get super rich, and why are they doing that? to bec

administration. that story coming up. sean: tonight on hannity's mesh, with the unemployment rate soaring the white house has decided to do its part. sort of. harper's magazine is reporting that if you want to be an ambassador in the obama administration it will cost you roughly $500,000 in political contributions. ambassadors are being installed now worldwide and some are so controversial some countries, like germany, are even refusing to sign off on them for the job. and with the universal nightmare looming, new polling data is showing that most americans are actually happy with their health care coverage and want democrats to back off. take a look at this rasmussen poll which shows a sharp improvement in how americans view the health care system. and 80% of those polled rate their coverage add good or excellent. an 11% increase in only a year. i have an idea. instead of weastding a trillion dollars on health care reform nobody wants, why not just give everybody a tax cut in and tonight the waste 101 update features some of the tiniest cities. ouzinkie, alaska, has 165 people. no scores

was short on material again because he is attacking governor palin. sean: tonight on "hannity's america," after weeks of accusing town hall attendees of being an astroturf movement, democrats are now planning to do a little bit of organizing themselves. this week the democratic national committee is hosting 1,000 rallies in cities all across the country to promote government-run government and get this -- politico.com reports that a special interest group known as health care for america now will be helping to promote these phony town hall events. nancy pelosi, does that sound like astroturf to you? and letterman is at it again. >> the miss universe pageant is judged on poise, beauty and also how you walk in high heels. what a coincidence. it's also how the republicans pick a vice-presidential candidate. the same criteria. sean: that joke comes near -- only a few months after letterman was nearly ousted for viciously attacking sarah palin's daughter on his show. he eventually apologized. i guess some people will never learn. another obama mentor is coming out of the woodwork, this time

"hannity" in 09 seconds. sean: they vased bitter vee tree ol, name calling, and violence, yet ordinary americans are coming forward and insisting their voices and questions are heard. tonight, we give them a place to speak freely and frakly. senator specter met my next guest and he didn't handle it with a whole lot of class. here's what happens when craig anthony miller questioned the senator. >> you want to be let out of here, you're welcome to go. now wait a minute, now wait a minute. now, wait a minute. wait a minute. wait a minute. >> i have every right to leave. >> wait a minute, wait a minute he has a right to leave. he's right. wait a minute. wait a minute. wait a minute. sean: miller claims senator specter's office told him he would be allowed to speak, but he was not given the mic, so he took matters into his own hands. let's take a look. >> i got news for you, you and your cronies in the government do this kind of stuff all the time. well, -- [applause] >> i'm not a lobbyist with all kinds of money to stuff in your pocket, so that you can cheat the citizens of this country so

limbaugh and sean hannity and george bush are at greater risk of assassination van barack obama. >> guest: as a fun part of the book. in the last chapter i point out i wouldn't have mentioned it if they haven't brought it up so much other ad campaign you keep hearing about this unique rest of, is that being assassinated because he is black in and this is unlike any other president or any other presidential candidate in the call in for a special secret service protection and article about i'm so worried review it and there was some liberal in britain sank in the is elected he will be assassinated so i wouldn't have mentioned if they haven't been dangling the big red tape in front of me but in point of fact pretty much every presidential assassination or attempted assassination in the history of america was committed by a liberal. some version have entered his communist palestinian extremists and there are a couple who didn't particularly have politics someone include john wilkes booth in that and john hinckley, but envelopes with casey was an actor. he was being hit a piece maugre in and t

panel will weigh in. sean: tonight in "hannity's america," for weeks the obama administration accused the media, politicians and citizens of engaging in a misinformation campaign against health care reform. it's actually president obama spreading false information. listen to what he said at this well-orchestrated town hall. >> we have the aarp on board because they know this is a good deal for our seniors. aarp would not be endorsing a bill if it was undermining medicare. sean: guess what, mr. president. aarp has not endorsed any bill. when asked about the president's comments, an aarp spokesman said, quote, indications that we have endorsed any of the major health care reform bills currently under consideration in congress is inaccurate." maybe we should report this fishy information to the white house website. now president obama likes to talk about reducing government waste. here's an idea. the latest new york state audit reveals that 11 inmates in a new york jail managed to secure nearly $30,000 in unemployment benefits from their jail cells. now the prisoners, who are serving tim

on to childrensdiabetesfoundation.org. sean: and tonight on "hannity's america," the obama administration will spend your money freely on everything from dinkey airports to grab trapping whether it will pinch pennies when it comes to law enforcement. according to eric holder, in jail is too expensive, and there are other, cheaper ways -- and jail is too expensive. oh, really? >> spending on prisons continues to rise. this is unsustainable economically. many jurisdictions simply cannot afford the monitor costs of focusing exclusively on incarceration to say nothing of the social costs associated with high rates of imprisonment. sean: , all right, so when does this administration care about debate sustainable economic policies"? how about taking some of that money and keeping violent criminals behind bars -- so when does this administration care about "sustainable economic policies to"? remember the schu bomber? he is serving a life sentenceรง in colorado is -- remember they shoe bomber, richard reid? t(s annual review. that means he is back in the general population. that means he is now allowed to receive pho
